When no trimming is desired, as when stitching on a fold,
flip the cutting blade lock switch clockwise to the LOCK
position. The cutting blade no longer moves up and down,
but remains in its lowered position. To re-engage the cut-
ting blade, turn the cutting blade lock switch half of a turn
counter-clockwise. The blade will start moving automati-
cally when you start sewing.
The presser foot pressure has been preset at the factory
and rarely needs adjustment. You may find it necessary,
however, to decrease the pressure for thick fabrics or in-
crease pressure for thin fabrics to feed more smoothly un-
der the foot. Use a coin to turn the screw on top of the
machine.
To increase pressure, turn the pressure adjusting screw
clockwise.
To decrease pressure, turn the screw counterclockwise.
The enspire has the convenience of a snap-on presser foot.
To Release:
1. Raise the presser foot lever.
2. Lower the cutting blade.
3. Raise the needles to the highest position.
4. Push the presser foot release lever located at the back of
the presser foot holder.
5. Carefully turn the presser foot clockwise 90 degrees.
6. Slide the presser foot to the rear to remove.
To Replace:
1. Raise the presser foot lever.
2. Lower the cutting blade.
3. Raise the needles to the highest position.
4. Slide the foot from the left to right.
5. Align the bar of the foot with the groove in the holder.
6. Lower the presser foot lever to snap into place.
The presser foot that comes with the enspire has a tape
sewing slot. Insert the tape or ribbon, into the slot in the
front of the foot, then under the sole of the foot. (see page
35 for more instruction)
The raised markings on the toe of the foot are seam line
guides. They indicate the needle positions to help guide
your fabric for accurate seaming.
